About the Concert
Happy 150th Canada! This year our country celebrates its 150th birthday. There will be fireworks, birthday cakes, festivals, air shows, and there will be Music! The Richmond Orchestra and Chorus is proud to present Canada 150: Music from Coast to Coast.
Canada’ musical heritage is as rich and varied as her citizens. The music of Canada reflects the diverse and vibrant cultures of the First Nations people, the early settlers from England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland, French Canadians, in fact, new Canadians from every corner of the world. Today, Canada’s music industry is ranked as the sixth largest in the world and has produced many internationally known musicians in every genre. If folk is your favourite type of music you can listen to such Canadians as Stan Rogers, Leonard Cohen, and Joni Mitchell. The Canadian jazz scene has produced such great artists as Oscar Peterson and Diana Krall. Rock bands, great classical artists, Japanese taiko drumming, Chinese instrumental ensembles – all have become part of Canada’s musical language, and offer something for everyone.
ROCA’s concert Canada 150: Music from Coast to Coast will offer a cross-section of this amazing tapestry. From the joyful energy of Larry Nickel’s All the Little Rivers of Canada to the plaintive Celtic influences in Loreena McKennitt’s music; from the Quebecois classic Mon Pays, to a cowboy stampede in the west; music to soak in, and music to sing along with – you won’t want to miss this concert!
